Wow poignant thread for me. My Dad got a motorcycle for the first time since having his first born (he had just had a minor accident a few weeks before my brother was born) in 2022. Literally 3 weeks later he had his life altering accident, at just 30 MPH on a residential road on the way to work. A car just turned without stopping. He landed on his spine directly on the kerb. A year in hospital, three care companies, family stress, unending legal/insurance meetings, adapting to life on a wheelchair, all that stuff...
Good news is he just got back from his first holiday since the accident, a wheelchair accessible cruise. Also I guess he/my parents/my family are technically millionaires now? But we won't really ever see any of it, it just goes towards his health care, which is insanely high with 24 hour care.
Can't agree more, sell the damn bike! My mum told him not to buy it, that he had accidents before and he's not young, but he didn't listen.
